    I remember her character as Alex Haley's mother in 'Roots the Next Generation' and being pleasantly surprised she played the role well. She was gorgeous and could act, I enjoyed the movie 'Fame'. That song Flashdance, What a Feeling, stayed in the music rotation on radio for several years. IMO, it's a classic. I hope Ms Cara knew the Lord.

    Aw sad. Normally when they don't have the cause of death and they're still relatively young it's not good.

    Yes, I hope it wasn't drug related. But I'm thinking it may be COVID related or the vaccine.

    I was thinking more suicide. But you could be right about the drug thing too. Didn't think of that.
